IT & Linux/UNIX experience? Want to work at one of the coolest "offices" on Earth? IceCube collaboration looking for two "winterovers" for next year.
📢 Ever wonder what it's like to work at one of the coolest places on Earth? Now's your chance! ❄️ 🧊 Winterover applications for the 2025-26 season are NOW OPEN! Applications are due January 2, 2025. Find out more and apply here ➡️ icecube.wisc.edu/jobs/
Success! Telemetry reestablished, spacecraft currently over southern Africa. It will get a gravitational assist from #Mars in Feb '25 and another from Earth in Dec '26. It will take almost 6 years before it arrives at #Europa and we get the first data! europa.nasa.gov/mission/timeli…
Launch window for @NASA's #Europa Clipper via @SpaceX opens @ 9:06am Pacific. #Jupiter's moon Europa likely has a salt water ocean beneath an icy crust ~12 miles thick. It's a prime #astrobiology target in the search for life! youtube.com/watch?v=lQToTW… science.nasa.gov/mission/europa…
@morgannike49 @jamieacarter @SkyandTelescope Ugh, I feel that so much. @AstroMCC's observing lab class can barely function anymore b/c every time we find a "lesser of the evils" spot, they mow everything down, put up a fence, & build multi-story buildings. Our community also wants the monthly star parties back, but... 🫤
Though currently lost in Sun's glare, #Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS is transitioning into the evening sky. Should just be visible after sunset on 12th. Might need binocs but many expect it to reach naked-eye visibility. @jamieacarter's how/when/where to see it: forbes.com/sites/jamiecar…

Scrub a dub, time to clean our mirrors 🫧 What's going on here? Power washing? No, that's too harsh for delicate telescope mirrors! Our staff are actually using liquid carbon dioxide in a process called "CO2 snow cleaning," which removes debris without damage or residue.
Help our NASA @chandraxray imaging Research! Our new study explores the viewing experience of astronomical data for people with color blindness: You do not need to have color blindness to participate, though please also share w/colleagues & friends who do surveymonkey.com/r/coloruniverse
Please help if you can! Need as many responses as possible. Studied (or taught) at an institution of higher learning (anywhere)? Parent of someone who has? We need your responses! Please and thank you!
Have you studied (or taught) at an institution of higher education? Parent of someone who has? Please take ~15 minutes of your time to help a friend doing doctoral research. It's often difficult to get a return rate that gives meaningful conclusions so please help and pass it on.

Kei Koizumi, Principal Deputy Director for Policy @WHOSTP (front row, far right), with the @AAS_Policy Congressional Visits Day delegation yesterday on the east stairs of the Eisenhower building (OEOB, EEOB, SWAN Bldg), across from the @WhiteHouse's West Wing.
In this episode of "RicaDink Goes to Washington"... Rica visits the @WHOSTP with the @AAS_Policy Congressional Visits Day delegation and struggles to reconcile her interest in science policy with her general loathing of politics.
The satcon forecast is depressing: doubling time for number of satellites is now only about one year. Much more than astronomy at stake now. @AAAS_STPF fellow @jsreding from @nsf speaking to @AAS_Policy CVD cohort. Data from @planet4589.
👀👀 We’ve seen so many great shots of the actual eclipse, but this is wild. Just before the eclipse reached its maximum, downtown Chicago looked like a sandy beach along the Gulf of Mexico. #EclipseSolar2024 #Eclipse2024
Do you have colorful sunset photos due to an atmosphere replete with volcanic ash? You can help scientists better understand volcanic events by contributing them to a citizen science project! Such interesting work and a great thread, @JohnBarentine. Thank you!
If you have any such photos and know the date/location on which they were made, the team is interested in hearing from you. DM me and I'll put you in direct contact with them. (8/8)
